IEEE 802.11 AP and IEEE 802.1X/WPA/WPA2/EAP Authenticator
Originally, hostapd was an optional user space component for
Host AP driver. It adds more features to the basic IEEE
802.11 management included in the kernel driver: using
external RADIUS authentication server for MAC address based
access control, IEEE 802.1X Authenticator and dynamic WEP
keying, RADIUS accounting, WPA/WPA2 (IEEE 802.11i/RSN)
Authenticator and dynamic TKIP/CCMP keying.
The current version includes support for other drivers, an
integrated EAP authenticator (i.e., allow full
authentication without requiring an external RADIUS
authentication server), and RADIUS authentication server for
EAP authentication.
